I knew J'onn would be high on the list, but not as high as he is. Rex doesn't really surprise me either, as he was a member of both JLE and the Gerry Jones (ugh) JLA.

and as to J'onn, he's one of the big 7 who has been there since the beginning, and he was really the ONLY Big 7 member who was there through the JLI (and extended) days. Bats was a part-timer at best, Hal was AWOL or dead, Barry was dead and Wally didn't join until JLE started (and didn't stick around the whole time), Supes was never a member until after Giffen & JM were gone, WW was there for basaically 3 issues of JLE, and Aquaman was never a member. J'onn made up a LOT of ground during that time (especially if you also count his Bloodwynd covers too).
